چکیده

Decomposition of C-labeled lignin to CO(2) by the lignin-decomposing fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Coriolus versicolor required a growth substrate such as cellulose or glucose. Growth with lignin as sole carbon addition to an otherwise complete medium was negligible.

The Biological Degradation of Lignin ' IV

Studies made in the field of microbiological degradation of lignin have included investigations with sodium and calcium lignosulfonates. Kazanskii and Mikhailova (1936) were unable to grow several wood-rotting fungi on neutralized waste sulfite liquor, but found that infusorial earth mixed cultures could grow albeit slowly (in 50-60 days) if several alterations were made in the composition of t...

Biodegradation of Different Genotypes of Miscanthus by Wood Rot Fungi

Miscanthus, which is comprised of several different genotypes, is an important high-biomass crop with applications in the biofuel industry and in the formation of biocomposite materials. The overall composition of Miscanthus can be altered via degradation with wood rot fungi. The starting composition revealed that the cellulose content of Miscanthus x giganteus was higher than that in Miscanthu...

ISEN METAGENOMIC DISCOVERY OF NOVEL LIGNIN - DEGRADING FUNGI FOR BIOFUEL PRODUCTION Louise

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The bio-conversion of plant lignocellulose to glucose is an key component of second generation biofuel production, but the resistance of lignin to breakdown is a major obstacle in this process. Filamentous fungi possess the unique ability to decompose the aromatic lignin polymers using enzymes encoded by divergent gene families. White-rot fungi are the primary lignin-d...
